****Fellow EBPF member EcoBrickBob asked me to kindly transfer over his write-up on his Methanol Injection Set Up, that is offered up by Official EBPF Vendor Unleashed Tuning.
Thanks and kudos goes out entirely to EBB for having posted this info for all fellow EcoBoost owner's to take advantage of.....****
Moving along, below is EBB's post as it appeared elsewhere: This is the Kit Torrie @ Unleashed Tuning created and is available at his Fast Parts Network website.
I located the W/M pump just behind the Radiator Reservoir. It is held in place by a piece of Aluminum strap that after attached to the pump housing, slides and locks into the slots on the back side of the reservoir. The inlet hose to the W/M pump goes into the windshield washer reservoir, which is utilized as the W/M holding tank. There is a "T" in the vacuum/pressure hose that goes into the intake manifold, and is located close to it. The hose from the "T" hooks to the pressure switch relay, that turns on the pump & the light showing the pump circuit is on. The light was added by me, and is visible to the driver. At the top of this picture is my custom Air Intake Sustem, which uses a ROTO FAB "J" intake pipe (from a G8 RF Intake) that is reversed, and mated to the pipes to the turbo's with 2 hoses & Clamps, with a solid piece of PVC inside. The filter is an AEM non-Oiled filter, with a K & N Filter cover.
A picture of the pump with the bracket, before installation. The pump can be easily removed if necessary. The supply lines are hooked up via quick connect fittings.
A picture of the "T" and it's location.
A picture of the boost pressure switch. The button on it manually activates the pump, to verify it is working and to prime it.
A picture of the relay that turns on W/M the pump. It is activated by the boost switch, and is hooked up to my light.
The light I installed to show when the W/M is spraying.
I added an in-line filter from AEM - just in case.
The location of the spray nozzle in the pipe between the Intercooler and the Intake.
Installed and hooked up to W/M Pump supply line. The nozzle is at the bottom, spraying up and angled towards the close by Throttle Body.
This picture shows the inside of the intake pipe, laying on top of the exposed throttle body.
When active, Spraying W/M reduces 1/4 mi times approximately 1/2 second.
Here is a better picture of the spray nozzle... (Too many pix... can't find them sometimes...)
Another..
I purchased 100% Methanol by the gallon at Cedar Falls Raceway for under $4.
When I bought the Snow 49-51, I got it from Summit.
At times I was running upwards of 75% methanol.
I did not have a separate tank as keeping the windshield clean used very little water/methanol ( which is what most windshield washer solutions for the lowest temps are made of).
Also, unless you really are on it all the time like bpd1151 !!!!! You won't use very much pump spray in normal driving situations. Torrie's system turns on at 8 PSI. The kit he sent me had a #7 nozzle. I later updated to the #10 nozzle, after I had already purchased and installed a 3 bar sensor.
I also added the filter which I purchased from AEM.
Since I wanted to know when the system was spraying, I also added an amber light that I positioned on the outside of the windshield near the wiper pivot on the drivers side.
When at the strip, I always manually turned on the spray, to make absolutely sure the pump was working, It always has been holding prime, and works immediately.
On trips back and forth from IA to FL & back, the spray never came on, except if I needed to floor the Flex for traffic situations that made it necessary. Maybe twice each way.
For anyone who is considering Torrie's system, I have more pictures, and would be happy to answer any other questions. Another positive is that this W/M system can be removed in about 15 minutes, if you use pin connectors for the electrical connections.
After extensive tuning & testing, I made 3, 12 second runs, the last 2 using DR's on front with outside temps in the mid-70's. Never have any better conditions since. If temps were in the 40's with those DR's, who knows how much faster I might have been.
Torrie McPhail has developed tunes based on my logging. However, once you have the setup and initial tune, it is always a good idea to log and send it to Torrie, so he can tweak it.
The same thing goes for the Livernois setup. You will definitely get even more performance if you have Dan Millen dyno your car after installation.
Logging works the same way, but takes longer as the tuner can't modify several things in real time, but has to go step by step and may be changing different variables.
Responsible tuners like Dan Millen (from LMS) and Torrie McPhail (Unleashed Tuning) are by nature conservative in their "canned" tunes, as not all cars are created equal.
Same goes for location, temp, fuel and more.
